WILLEMSTAD - Prime Minister Eugene Rhuggenaath tries to get in touch with Marilyn Alcalá-Wallé before responding to the letter from the Supreme Electoral Council about the parliamentary seat vacated by Jeser El Ayoubi's.
According to Rhuggenaath, the goal is not to delay this process. Rhuggenaath wants to show understanding for her commitment as a former minister of Curaçao. She was the minister of education for a few years until she had to resign because of a complaint that was filed against her.
Last Friday, Marilyn Alcalá-Wallé filed a complaint with the National Criminal Investigation Department against President of Parliament Ana Maria Pauletta and the secretary of the PAR party, because she was not officially informed by the head of the Supreme Electoral Council that she can take the parliamentary seat. But she had received a letter from the President of Parliament asking her to refuse the seat and to sign a statement that came with it. Alcalá-Wallé felt that she was thereby pressured to commit forgery.
